the error that north" in California re-

ATTITUDES, regardless of isothermal currents
or belts. 1t says: The immigration to
California the past year is reported in
round numbers at 100000 people, mostly
in Southern California. The central and

the result is that they have got left pretty

the north is fully conscious of it, no time

SENSE FROM OHIO.

Ohio generally is in favor of the en-
forcement of the interstate commerce long
and short haul law, because the Act is a
protective tariff for Ohio productions. 1t
raises the value of every acre of land in
Ohio to remove the competition of the
West, and this is just what Mr. Free-trade
Cleveland's un-American interstate pro-
lection does. Nevertheless, we have even
from Ohio sensible expression now and
then-one that looks beyond the merely
selfish interest. Thus, the Columbus Dis
patch says;
As general rule, the large manufacturers of
the country demand the suspension of the long
and short haul section, while those who urge
Its enforcement are small concerns with very
poor facilities, which cannot get out their prod
ucts as eheaply as can the larger and better
equipped concerns, and which see in the strict
enforcement of the fourth section a grand on
portunity to build themselves up at the expense
OF the larger establishments

THE LOGIC OF IT.

Whoever reflects upon the outcome of
the Bulletin Chronicle libel suit, must con-
clude that the amount of damages, money
measured, had nothing to do with the real
issue. The verdict really means that the
Chronicle cannot injure by anything it may
say, and it is estopped from denying the
logic of that conclusion, since it deliber-
ately pleaded that it is not libelous to
charge newspaper with selling its infu-
ence. As the Oakland Enquirer well puts
it:
When the suit was brought the Chronicle tried
to evade responsibility i'll way which was dis
graceful to itself, and reflected disgrace upon
the whole newspaper business. The Chronicle
demurred to the claim for damages upon the
ground that to assert that paper had sold the
influence of its editorial columns was not libel
Gus, because to do such thing would not be
wrong. No paper could take that position with
out conceding that it held its own opinions as
mere merchandise, to be sold to any who would
buy, and it was about the most infamous and
shameless thing ever done by a newspaper For
this attempt to debase the whole profession of
journalism the Chronicle deserved the unslinted
condemnation OF every honorable man.

ADVICE FROM ABROAD.

The Los Angeles Herald has this to say
of the effort of Sacramento to i'm
prove the tide that has set in her di-
rection. We can afford to be advised from
Los Angeles, since that people have ex-
perience for their guide, and despite their
Jealousy of the North, are not unwilling.

NOT INITIATION.

La the advance of values in Northern
California there is no imitation. The new
land and industrial enterprises are not
created schemes. They are the legitimate
results of productive capacity and climatic
advantage. Whenever the sum asked FIR
land exceeds the capacity to pay interea.
upon the money it capitalizes. it is an
inflated value and cannot be maintained.
Exoroitant Irices arising OF; of the
necessities or speculative greed OF men are
phenomenal and never enduring. In the
Northern and Central California region
there has beer, and Lex us hope there will
be, no eztrayae ant or greedy askings. All
such demands react damagingly. What
we want is neither cheapening nor over
pricing, hut values that are backed by the
re asonabieness of the yield, and the COM

TO SECURE COUNTY EXHIBITS

The State Agricultural Society has
issued letter to the people of the interior,
and to the local associations and county
Supervisors, urging immediate action with
a view to having all the counties repre-
sented at the State Fair in competition for
the $4,000 set aside for county exhibits.
All this is well enough, and it ought to
bring a good and helpful response, and re-
suit in activity to the end desired.
But half dozen live" men sent into
the counties to organize the local efforts
will be worth a million circulars. For the
people, when busy with the approaching
harvest, are unlikely to effect organiza-
ton, as 4 result of circular solicitation.
What is left to everybody is usually at
tended to by nobody. Let the State Board of
Agriculture at once employ half dozen
thoroughly competent men to 60 into the
counties and effect the organization asked
for, and secure the positive pledge of the
people to make the fair of 1887 the
EANohSob WI hClu pun llt
Without any intention to reproach, or to
boast, we submit that four years ago, and
again three years ago, the REcoRD-UNIoN
urged precisely such a policy, and repeat
eddy asked the State Society to adopt it.
The Board, however, admitting it was a
good plan, resolved to leave the county
exhibit business to the Oranges. This
journal pointed out that in several counties
there are no Grange organizations, and in
many, so many of them that the response
bility would be too much divided. The
result was that only few counties ex-
hibited. They were splendid exhibitions,
to be sure, and led to second and a third
effort Of the same kind, with results about
as in the first instance.
Now that the Mechanics Institute pri-
waite syndicate is in the field bidding for
county exhibits, the matter cannot longer
be left TO everybody to be worked up. 1t
requires individual effort, personal canvass
and solicitation by fully authorized
representatives of the State Society. Had
that plan been adopted years ago, it is en-
tirely probable that we would have had
fifteen or sixteen counties competing, and
possibly twenty, and the opposition of the
San Francisco concern would have been
powerless to divert them. 1t is not now
untlmely to adopt the plan, and which to
certain extent the San Francisco Asso-
citation has fallen upon and utilized. The
reasons that existed for its adoption by the
State Society some years ago still exist, but
are stronger than ever, and the need for
such individual effort much greater
